New Golf Course, Event Space Approved in RPV

The development, which will be built in the Point View tract area, will also include an organic farm.

Plans for a new executive golf course, event space and organic farm on a 94-acre vacant piece of land overlooking the ocean in Rancho Palos Verdes were approved this month by the city's Planning Commission.

According to the Daily Breeze, developers hope to start work as early as this month on the project, which will occupy a piece of land known as the Point View tract.

The new development, known as Catalina View Estates, will include a 2.5-acre 9-hole golf course, an event garden, greenhouse and in the future, possible vineyards, the Daily Breeze reported.

Jim York, the project's developer, had his original plans for an "event garden" on the land shot down by the city in 2009 due to zoning laws and noise concerns from neighbors, Curbed L.A. reported.

However, Curbed L.A. added that because a golf course was added to this round of development plans, the project was approved because zoning laws allow for golf courses to also have ancillary support structures.

"I want to have fun with this property," York told the Daily Breeze.
